This is "One Day More" from the musical Les Miserables. This version has the instrumentals and me filling in on Valjean, Marius, Enjorlas, Javert, and Thenardier's part.
To save time, I've used some clips from other recordings to help fill in the chorus/ensemble parts. The thought of recording and singing all the choral/ensemble parts gave me a headache lol. Plus, I wanted the female vocalist to really feel like they were singing with a FULL cast.
I apologize in advance for putting so much echo/reverb into this, but I did some comparisons and it truly gives it that live performance feel. Anyhow, if you've ever wanted to sing as Eponine, Cosette and Madame Thenardier... now's your chance!
Big thanks to TLKthing for providing such an awesome instrumental track (I edited it to suit my needs, however)click the link below to check out his profile:

If you're planning to use this recording, here is some panning info you might find useful so that you can blend in with it better:
Valjean - Left / Right (Stereo)
Marius - Right Channel Only (during duets and last part)
Enjorlas - Left / Right (Stereo)
Javert - Left Channel Only (during duets and last part)
Thenardier - Right Channel Only (during duets and last part)
With that said, you can (if you want) pan your parts to the opposite so that you get a full stereo affect and make the parts easier to hear overall. Hope this helps!
Without further delay, here are the lyrics:
VALJEAN
One day more!
Another day, another destiny.
This never-ending road to Calvary;
These men who seem to know my crime
Will surely come a second time.
One day more!
MARIUS
I did not live until today.
How can I live when we are parted?
VALJEAN
One day more.
MARIUS & COSETTE
Tomorrow you'll be worlds away
And yet with you, my world has started!
EPONINE
One more day all on my own.
MARIUS & COSETTE
Will we ever meet again?
EPONINE
One more day with him not caring.
MARIUS & COSETTE
I was born to be with you.
EPONINE
What a life I might have known.
MARIUS & COSETTE
And I swear I will be true!
EPONINE
But he never saw me there!
ENJOLRAS
One more day before the storm!
MARIUS
Do I follow where she goes?
ENJOLRAS
At the barricades of freedom.
MARIUS
Shall I join my brothers there?
ENJOLRAS
When our ranks begin to form
MARIUS
Do I stay; and do I dare?
ENJOLRAS
Will you take your place with me?
ALL
The time is now, the day is here
VALJEAN
One day more!
JAVERT
One day more till revolution,
We will nip it in the bud!
We'll be ready for these schoolboys,
They will wet themselves with blood!
VALJEAN
One day more!
M. & MME. THENARDIER
Watch 'em run amuck,
Catch 'em as they fall,
Never know your luck
When there's a free for all,
Here a little `dip'
There a little `touch'
Most of them are goners
So they won't miss much!
Students (2 Groups)
1: One day to a new beginning
2: Raise the flag of freedom high!
1: Every man will be a king
2: Every man will be a king
1: There's a new world for the winning
2: There's a new world to be won
ALL
Do you hear the people sing?
MARIUS
My place is here, I fight with you!
VALJEAN
One day more!
MARIUS & COSETTE
I did not live until today.
EPONINE
One more day all on my own!
MARIUS & COSETTE
How can I live when we are parted?
JAVERT(overlapping)
I will join these people's heros
I will follow where they go
I will learn their little Secrets,
I will know the things they know.
VALJEAN
One day more!
MARIUS & COSETTE
Tomorrow you'll be worlds away
EPONINE
What a life I might have known!
MARIUS & COSETTE
And yet with you my world has started

We will nip it in the bud
We'll be ready for these
Schoolboys

Watch 'em run amok

When there's a free-for-all!
VALJEAN
Tomorrow we'll be far away,
Tomorrow is the judgement day
ALL
Tomorrow we'll discover
What our God in Heaven has in store!
One more dawn
One more day
One day more!
